Question: What is the perfection of our prayer?

Answer: It lies in the certainty that if we reach the right kind of prayer, the Creator will surely answer it. In this way, we attain the goal. We will understand this through the states we go through as each one leads us closer to adhesion with the Creator.

Question: How is this different from our current states?

Answer: The point is that we still have no true connection with the Creator. Feeling that some force governs us does not mean we are connected with it.

We call out to it, we feel that we lack it, that without it we are completely abandoned, but if we persistently strike at one point, we will certainly achieve adhesion with the Creator.

Question: Besides uniting at congresses, raising a common prayer, working in tens and dissemination, attending lessons, and reading the sources, what else can we as a community and as individuals do to bring Israel to correction and become an example for the whole world?

Answer: We must ask the Creator for unity, to show us the unified point of connection among us so that we always have such a center of connection, and that only this would be important to us.

Question: How can we now make our hearts similar to the Creator’s so that He may dwell in our shared heart?

Answer: We need to imagine the connection between our hearts, and from this collective heart, raise a prayer.

In principle, it is not so far from us. Let’s try to do it together and discover where else we can draw closer to one another.

Question: When a person faces utterly ugly situations that cause great pain, he can understand that this pain gives him the conditions to work with the heart for the right kind of prayer. But when he keeps striking through this pain in prayer, he realizes he has no strength left. How can he remove himself from this pain and use it as a condition for the proper prayer for everyone?

Answer: A person must realize where this feeling of pain comes from—from the Creator. Why? Because despite his thoughts, the person is actually close to the Creator.

Therefore, we must strive toward the point of connection with the Creator. And when we reach it, we must leave ourselves behind and envision ourselves fused with the Creator.

That is the purpose of our prayer.

Question: We try so hard to unite our desires that we often get confused. Should we somehow soften our hearts so that they can unite or should we make our common aspiration so strong that it breaks through the boundary between us?

Answer: At one time I used to write down the demands that arose in me while reading the articles without yet knowing how it would be possible to unite all these desires, directions, and intentions together with the friends and become included in them, until I felt that it is precisely our common desire that can unite us with one another and with the Creator.

You now have all the opportunities for this. Nothing else is needed except to imagine that you are connected with one another and with the Creator.

Question: What should one focus their efforts on in spiritual work: feeling the individual desires of the friends in the ten or on sensing the collective aspiration without being distracted by particulars?

Answer: It is more effective to concentrate your efforts on collective aspiration. First I recommend finding this shared yearning, connecting to it, accepting it as your own, and using it to move forward.

Each person must feel that the entire ten depends on them. You must take the ten into your hands and carry it toward the Creator. That is exactly what we need to feel.

The ten should live within the heart of each one of us so that we constantly sense it, never let it go, and in this way, carry it to the Creator.

Question: What does it mean to open the heart? What is power over the heart?

Answer: Power over the heart means that I can direct my heart and decide how it should work, whether it will be open or closed to others, strive forward together with someone or not, and so on. This is the work within the heart.

Question: When we make an “attack” on our own heart, what is our main mistake?

Answer: That is something each person must discover for themselves. Matters of the heart cannot be handed over to another. In general, we can talk about it, but in essence, only you can precisely determine it for yourself.

We ourselves must awaken the Creator to give us the desire to give. It is not enough that we have a desire to receive because there must also be a positive desire from the giver to give us a new desire to give.

Even though above there is a general desire to do good to His creations, He still waits for our desire to awaken His desire.

In other words, if we are unable to evoke His desire, it is a sign that the desire on the part of the receiver is still incomplete. Hence, precisely by praying that there will be a will above, our desire is made to be a genuine desire, to be a fitting Kli [vessel] to receive the abundance (Baal HaSulam, Shamati 57, “Will Bring Him Closer to His Will“).

Constant appeal to the Creator from the ten will eventually lead to the fact that our request is genuine and will elicit an answer. The Creator is a law of nature. We need to reach a certain threshold of effort, then we will receive a new life from above, a new property—the property of bestowal.

We have not yet crossed this threshold, which means that we do not yet have this desire. We will not be able to use the quality of bestowal correctly, but would use it selfishly. The upper governance will in no way allow this.

Therefore the constant awakening of the Creator from the ten is a necessary condition for the genuine desire to emerge in the ten in the right magnitude and quality. Our success depends on this alone!
